Spent 2 lessons with Grade 11 IB DP Literature class. The students presented different aspects of Ibsen’s ‘A Doll’s House’. They looked at stage directions written in the text, looked at the literary devices, looked at the historic and social background of the play. SO impressed to see the depth of thought and preparation of their presentations for each other. Also how the students took notes from each other.
The use of technology is such a support. The students uploaded their presentations to google docs and could easily assess their own (and others) presentations and by using the projector, show their class mates. Students share knowledge and inspire and encourage each other. The technological platform supports this methodology.
Next on the reading list is Albert Camus ‘The Outsiders’ – more books to read 🙂
